Arrived on the pier 4am sat. One guy on the end been there since friday 7pm (think his name is arthur from stanington) Joined 10 mins later by three more lads who knew him.Thay were on the front and i was on the right hand side of them.Got chating to them as you do.Its great that time in the morning no dick heads.The mackerel arrived about 4.30 ish every body catching 3-4 at a time.A lot of small ones mixed in.Thay went back. Then the banter started.With arthur being the instigator.What a guy. Couldnt fish for laughing. Any way lost 3 put back 4 cought 5 one was 2lb. What a fight that was on a spinning rod. At the finnish arthur came over and hand balled it up for me(cheers arthur) Then around half six seven it went dead with only the odd one being cought. left the pier 8 30 -9 ish still laughing. Sunday morning a lot slower but still managed 5.
